Beneath these masts of lightning blue we sat and wove these tales for you.They started harsh but ended serene.I know you enjoyed them for your eyes turned green. Yet where has all your empathy gone?Sold or cut it matters little for you have turned into a demon.Crushed hope within your fist.I still remember before yourContinue reading “Blight”

Angels of the root.Lives beneath a boot.With fettered fall and a sinking gut.Peace will drown in a glut.For sense was sold to the lowest cur.And so upon these waves we will be… Torn asunder and cast aside.Unto his bidding we divide.Damaged by our always beauty.Sacrificed and lacking duty. Severed sections of a time undone.After forgottenContinue reading “Angels Of The Root”

These days are short but oh so heavy.Forming orderly lines won’t fix a thing.Bodies strewn across these battlefields.Lives cut short by stupid kings.Yet here we stand on the edge of a knife.Blood-soaked hands won’t fix this bite.As winds howl and determination frays.Say goodbye and welcome these Valkyries. On swollen wings they claim us each.One byContinue reading “Valkyries On Swollen Wings”

Making demands as if I serve you.Get a grip I’m a person too.All your demands show your true face.Ugly and twisted with a hint of vindictive.Trying to put others down cause you think you’re better.Jesus, give it a break you are nothing special.Equality is the name of the game.Clearly you’ve forgotten that as you roseContinue reading “Shattered Mask”

Apathy is now the leading view.Only care is about getting money from me to you.Degradation of giving a damn.What matters is how you can fund someone. Too much is put into having more.A psycho fixation that I do abhor.For it cuts civility down to size.Breeding contempt that marries with a selfish life.Consume then throw away…WhetherContinue reading “Warped Society”

Cast a line into the ocean.Only then will life be spoken.When days are but a seldom dream.Here lies the vault that betrayed all that was serene.Fashioned from skin robbed by greed.Jealousy has been given speed.Writhing deep in caverns of red.Hide beneath the safety of your bed.Where angels haunt those long forgotten.Prowling in the shadows ofContinue reading “Sentenced”

Solitude in the face of the old.Perfected moments delivered via trending.Harness that which doesn’t quite fit in place.Remove isotopes embedded deep.With a smile full of ash and eyes filled with lies.Petulance continues to send out the weak.Fodder to cannons mounted on rooftops.Graveyards surround our every dream.Bulbs filling in gaps long carved by rounds.These forgotten digitsContinue reading “Ever Tone”

Staring at the ghostly face that glares back at me.Nothing about its dead eyes elicits comfort today.Haunting sense that my death is right around the bend.What stands before me is perhaps a final bloody end. Cause for too long voices have bickered in my mind.Each one a victim in its own belief structure defined.With noContinue reading “I Will Not”

With these dreams in my heart and my head fixed on prevailing there is no way I am quitting.You can think me mad or even a fool but I will continue to work to be my very best.I may falter in my endeavour to be better than I was yesterday, though that does not meanContinue reading “Pressure Inflicted”

Why are you so adamant that you want to sleep?Stay in a simulation over which you have no agency.Made to wander upon a predestined path that is not your choosing.Does that not sound like the ultimate kind of loosing?Where nothing you do can and will ever matter.Instead you are just a cog in a machine.WhenContinue reading “Choosing Blue”
